Due: Day 7
Grading Category: Assignments – iHuman Assignments
Introduction
The iHuman platform is an opportunity for you to interact with a simulated patient and gather data. When working in iHuman, practice as if this were a real patient. For example, the platform allows you to ask many questions when taking a history. In real life, you likely will be limited in time. Practice setting a time limit for yourself and work on being efficient in your clinical interview.
If you require technical support with the iHuman platform, use the iHuman Help Center to contact iHuman Technical Support directly. Technical support refers to a malfunction of the platform; they cannot help with issues involving content! Faculty cannot assist with technical issues.

Assessment
This is the differential diagnosis section. List FOUR differential / working diagnoses. One of these will be your final diagnosis. For EACH of your diagnoses, list a brief rationale indicating why this diagnosis should be considered or not considered as the final diagnosis. Include references used to guide your thinking.
Final Diagnosis:
Plan
All plans until you graduate contain the following elements. If an item does not apply to the particular situation, please indicate not applicable or not needed at this time. If it’s not indicated, it is assumed to not have been addressed.
Pharmacology
Medications—both prescription and OTC—go here. Write out your prescription meds just like a prescription.
Non-Pharmacology
What non-pharmacologic interventions do you recommend for your patient?
Diagnostics
Are there any lab tests, radiology, or other diagnostics you would like to order? Remember to think primary care. No troponins or bedside stat echos in the office.
Consults/Referrals
Would you like to phone a friend? Should they follow up with a specialist for additional or further care?
Patient Education
What important information do you need to make certain they know? Don’t forget about serious medication interactions or OCP.
Follow Up
Think about how much leeway you want to give this patient before someone lays eyes on them again? One week? Two? What should they do if they experience new or worsening symptoms?

(more if needed)
Diagnostics

Compression stockings may help with the edema as will reducing the calcium channel blocker. You need to check your blood pressure twice a day before you take your medications and keep a log. Please bring this log to your appointments.
Address the benefits and limitations to each medication. Address common side effects and the patient goals. Also, address common education topics.
